Mugwort Rice Cake Essence Toner

Soothing

Pleasant Scent

Easily Absorbed

Improves Skin Texture

feels refreshing

Not Sticky

Not Irritating

There's nothing to complain about. It's mild and brightens the complexion. The only disappointment is that it's been discontinued.

This product was gentle enough for sensitive skin to use without issues. It's a shame it's been discontinued.

쑥떡 에센스 토너

Applying two layers before serum helps prevent deep dryness after makeup application.

Nothing particularly negative to say. It's an unexpectedly excellent toner, possibly as good as the Anua toner.

A gentle toner that keeps skin moisturized when used before makeup. It's a solid, reliable choice that seems to improve skin condition with continued use. The texture is pleasantly watery rather than sticky, making it perfect as the first step after cleansing.

I recommend buying cotton pads to use with this product for the best results.

While it claims to eliminate blemishes and soothe the skin, I honestly couldn't notice much of a difference in that regard.

It has no scent and isn't sticky, which I really liked. I especially enjoyed using it as a mask by soaking a cotton pad - it works great that way!

There's nothing to be disappointed about... Not a single thing!

I frequently used this as a skin pack on my sensitive skin, and there wasn't a single instance of discomfort or blemishes!

The hydration feels like it evaporates quickly. It's a bit disappointing if this is the only product you're using.

It seems to have a calming effect on the skin. It feels very refreshing!

I heard mugwort is good for calming the skin, but the toner alone doesn't seem to have much effect.

I also bought the mugwort cream set, but haven't used it yet as I still have some of my old cream left. I should try using them together...

The price seems reasonable (it's best to buy the set when it's on sale). It doesn't cause blemishes, so I'm using it without any issues.

Skin type: Sensitive, very dry, thin skin with visible blood vessels. Oily products tend to cause blemishes. Centella doesn't agree with my skin.

Despite having dry skin, I tend to cleanse thoroughly. After using a charcoal cleanser, I don't dry my face but go straight to my vanity. I then wipe my face and apply toner.

Using a cotton pad to apply toner in the direction of skin texture helps refine my complexion.

When applying essence or cream, it feels like my skin drinks it up!

I use a watery toner with a cotton pad to wipe my face once, then I apply this toner by patting it on with my hands. Although it's a toner, I'm using it like an essence. I love its subtle fragrance and the fresh, hydrating feel. If you don't like sticky products, using two toners with different textures like this can be a good method!

Since I was expecting a soothing effect when I bought this product, I don't have any particular complaints. I'm very satisfied.

I came to Hwahae to check the ingredients and ended up writing an unexpected review! My skin, which had become sensitive and reddened due to mask-wearing, visibly calmed down. At first, I wasn't sure why, but this toner was the only thing I changed in my routine, so it must be its effect. I've been consistently using April Skin's peel-off mask, and since the mugwort ingredient worked well for me, I decided to buy this toner along with it. After using it for about a week, I think I'll definitely repurchase it! It's not a watery toner, but has a slightly viscous texture that doesn't drip, making it easy to apply with your hands. It absorbs quickly and definitely feels moisturizing. The biggest effect is skin soothing!!!

I bought it as a set with the carotene serum, and they work really well together.

The regular price might be a bit steep? If you have a part-time job, you'd settle for it right away... But then, there's COVID.....

✔ Skin Type
Dry/Sensitive. My skin texture was so bad at the time that it even affected my mood negatively.

✔ Ingredients
My sensitive skin usually gets irritated around the nose when I apply just anything, but with this, there was no such issue. It felt gentle right from the application.

✔ Texture
It's exactly what you'd call an essence toner. Not completely watery, nor is it a thick 'runny nose' toner. Great for exfoliating and works well as a hydrating toner too.

✔ Scent
There's a pleasant shampoo-like scent during application, but it becomes unscented afterwards.

✔ User Experience/Effects
It feels moisturizing right from the first application. It really helps with deep dryness. The absorption is incredibly fast. Once applied, it absorbs immediately without any stickiness, yet it's not completely matte either. It makes that satisfying 'chap chap' sound. It truly feels like you've applied an essence. I got through summer with just this and a serum.

Make sure to try at least 3 layers! It's fantastic for combating deep dryness, really works wonders!

Hmm... the container lid can be a bit leaky? If you're careful, you can avoid spills, but it requires some skill... haha! That's really the only issue though, I swear!

I didn't realize how great this was when I just used it as a skin pack, but it's truly amazing! The texture is slightly runny, like mucus, but I've been using it for 3-7 layers of toner. I also use it as a skin pack. The scent isn't overpowering, just a subtle herbal fragrance. I didn't expect much at first, but I was pleasantly surprised by how good it is. I'm planning to repurchase when I finish this one. When I use it for 3 or more layers, my skin feels so well-soothed the next day. Love it!

After using it as a skin pack, I apply it again, gently pressing it into my skin for a second layer. This really helps combat deep dryness!

Why can't I find any drawbacks? Haha! I guess it just works so well for me that there aren't any!

I expected a mugwort scent from this mugwort toner, but it's actually fragrance-free! It's a perfect #dailytoner for those of us with fragrance sensitivities 💚. This lightweight toner absorbs quickly, leaving a fresh finish. It's packed with hydration, making it ideal for hot summer use. As a high-spec toner that's passed 9 human clinical trials, I've found that with consistent use, my blemishes have disappeared! The ingredients seem to suit me perfectly :>
